Reckless When Lyrics

Sometimes I walk out to the middle of the road

Like to watch the machines as they're barreling towards me, oh

Their glance is more inviting

Than any humans' that I've seen in a long time

Wordlessly you call, be mine

Am I ready to be ground

I lay me down

Am I ready to be found

In state ground

I feel so good

Riding on the edge

Can I desensitize enough to make the dying feel soft

No turning back once I take the training wheels off

Please fear not

This is just a test

The rush I get from thinking bout it's all I really want

I don't think I'll ever take the training wheels off

Metal pillow, gravel mattress

Everything I want

It's nice to close my eyes and not know if I'm waking up

I'm only here cause I heard you whistling

From a distance

The sound was more comforting

Than any words that I've been given in so long

Can you come a little closer and whisper it

In my ear for me

Am I ready to be ground

I lay me down

Am I ready to be found

In state ground

And if the butcher does his job I'll pay him well

I know I could never deserve a fine farewell

Am I ready to be ground

I lay meat down

I feel so good

Riding on the edge

Can I desensitize enough to make the dying feel soft

No turning back once I take the training wheels off

Please fear not

This is just a test

The rush I get from thinking bout it's all I really want

I don't think I'll ever take the training wheels off

Give me something

To lose

Or let me be

Reckless when I want

Who cares if it does harm

I'm not sure who does

But I know damn well who doesn't

Give me something

To lose

Or let me be

Reckless without fear

Who cares if it ends here

Well I know who does

But I care more about who doesn't

I feel so good

Riding on the edge

Can I desensitize enough to make the dying feel soft

No turning back once I take the training wheels off

Please fear not

This is just a test

The rush I get from thinking bout it's all I really want

I don't think I'll ever take the training wheels off

I got nothing

To lose

So let me be

Reckless when I, reckless when I, reckless when I want

And I guess it's always possible that something goes wrong

I just figure if it does nothing of value is lost
